OMAHA. July 31. 1911
With the large winter wheat movement
and favorable weather for maturing ana
Recui-lnr one of the lamest sorlnc wheat
crops ever raised In the nothwest, the
surroundings arc very bearish. The fact
that prices are on an export level Is
not a bullish Influence at present, as me
United States has a good-sized surplus
and the quicker they sell It the better it
will be for the trade, as it will leave a
stronger domestic position and make the
position of the bull traders more tenable
later on in the year, one or tne oesi
posted men in the export trade says
that within three and .one-half week
Russia will be a competitor of the United
States and In two months Canada alio
will be In competition. The weather
throughout the northwest Is generally
favorable and conditions in Canada are
also favorable . Harvesting has begun In
Hnnth Dakota- southern Minnesota and
the southern part of North Dakota. There
is a good demand for casn wneat now,
Cash wheat unchaneed to 'AC higher.
The growing corn crop has yet to pass
through the critical stage. Anytning in
the way of a hot weather crop will In
fluence the late months chiefly. The
September option will be Influenced by
' the strong cash position. The weather re
ports today are generally very favorable,
and provided It keeps so, traders look
for a muoh more liberal movement Inside
of two weeks. The Immediate course of
this market depends chiefly on the
weather map. Cash corn 4ic ilgher.
Oats are more congested than any
other grain, as there are no stocks any
place and no deliveries have been made
this month. It Is said that one house
has 300,000 bushels and wants a delivery,
and there Is no telling how high the pric e
will go whe'n the shorts try to control
this market. Cash oats unchanged.

CHICAGO GRAM AND PROVISIONS
Features of the Trading; and Closing
' Prices oa Board of Trade.
CHICAGO, July 8L July grain prices
Whirled rapidly today in the last fifteen
minutes before the business in that
month's delivery came to an end. That
option of wheat went to pieces, break
ing 8 cents from the top point of the ses
sion and closing 6V4 cents under yester
day's finish. Unloading by a few longs
who had miscalculated that there would
be a lively demand was the reason. Othor
wheat futures closed fco V HWtoo lower.
Shorts In wheat had unobtrusively
settled up early and had checkmated op
ponents who were lying in wait for
stragglers. Export sales on a liberal scale
was what made the shorts so wary. Be
sides there were heavy rains In Franca
interfering with the harvest. Fear existed
also that showers In North Dakota would
lead to a renewal of the black rust
menace. Apprehension In regard to the
conditions northwest however, were dis
puted by optimistic dispatches from crop
experts. Accordingly, the bullish tendency
of the market at the outset gave way
. later to sentiment In favor of the other
side, in the course of the day September
ranged from 'ic to 94c, closing easy,
14 o net lower at 934c
Inadequacy of the rains In the south
west furnished campaign material for bull
leaders in corn. July finished, o off to
He up compared with last night Sep
tember fluctuated from 66o to 67c and
I closed o net higher at 669c. Cash grades
I were firm. No. yellow was quoted at
74S74HC.
; Small shorts In July oats had to bid
that delivery up 6l4c from the bottom of
, the day. September kept between 32
&32c and 33ft!ff33c with sales a shade
net higher at 32&33c.
Provisions, after starting strong on ac
count of commission demand for January
1 products became weak under fairly free
' offerings by western packers.

General Hardening of Prices After i"

STEEL COHDiriOXS FAVORABLE
List Moves I'pwar daa Seaaloa Ad
Taacee, bat Gains Most Marked
la Speclaltlea Canadian
Pacific Higher.
NEW YORK, July 31.-Early deaUngs in
stocks today Indicated a degree of in
decision, followed later by a general
naraening or prices. To what extent the
statement of the United States Steel
corporation was responsible for the
movement must remain a matter of con
jecture but steel shares were again the
most active feature, with evidence of
what Is tchnlcally called "good buying."
Only In a comparative sense, however,
can the steel report for the second
quarter of the year be regarded favor
ably. The cotton dividend barely was
earned and there still remained a large
deficit to be overcome In the remaining
six months. Advices from authoritative
sources respecting the steel Industry re
main highly encouraging, embracing not
only additional price advances, but fur
ther proof of unappeased demand to the
extent that premiums continue to be
orfered for quick delivery.
The list moved upward as the session
progressed, but gains were most marked
in specialties. A notable exception was
Canadian Pacific, which established a
record price, accompanied by the usual
rumors of an "extra" dividend or
rights. More likely the new high rec
ord resulted chiefly from remarkable
June earnings reported by the road
hhares of Minneapolis, St. Paul and Kault
MeMarie, controled hv ranu.iinn Po,.ifi
also registered a substantial advance.
Hill issues, St Paul and Union Pacific
again desponded to optimistic crop nows
i in u uuner tone to the coalers, while
Biscuit and the Tobaccos led the special
ties with some prominence in Bethlehem
bteel pfd. Trading was light, but more
than double that of the nmoeHinir h.v
one of the dullest of the year.

CATTLE Receipts were light today,
only 71 fresh cars being reported In. This
leaves the total for the three days at
8,291 bead, as against 9.875 head for the
same days last week and 18,961 head for
the corresponding period a year ago.
Receipts of all kinds of cattle having
been so extremely small this week, buy
ers have been unable to secure as many
as they have been In need of and for that
reason were all hungry for fresh supplies
again this morning. As a result the mar
ket opened early and very active and
practically everything was sold at a very
early hour. The prices paid were good
and strong; In fact, if anything a little
higher than yesterday, so far as the bet
ter grades were concerned. This would
apply to all kinds of cattle, beef steers,
cows and heifers and stock cattle and
feeders. While there were no strictly
choice cornfeds in sight to 'make a top,
there were cattle here good enough to
bring $9.25, with range cattle as high as
$8.00.

HOGS With a moderate supply of hogs
on hand the market opened barely steady
and for a wnue traae was ratner siow,
In a short time, however, It became active
both packersana snippers paying prices
rnnoraiiv 5c higher ana in some cases 10c
higher than yesterday's market. The ad
vance was pretty general as tne common,
heavy and mixed kinds advanced just as
much and in spots mora than good light
hogs. As receipts were comparatively
light and there being a ' good demand,
buyers discriminated less against weight
than recently, jracaern ooueni more
freely- early in the morning than for
several days back and the shippers pur
chased about their usual . proportion ot
the receipts. A load of good shipping
hogs was sold at the top price, $100. This
Is the highest-price for a car of hogs
since January, 1911, when $8.10 was paid.

SHEJ5P Another large marketing of
sheep and lambs took place today the
receipts footing up about forty-nine loads.
Shipments were confined chiefly to Iaano,
Montana and Wyoming, very little native
stock being on the market. The pro
portion -of lambs was again fairly large
this morning and wethers and ewes made
up the big bulk of the fat sheep on sale.
General quality of the supply might be
taken. as some better than yesterday as
there were quite a number of good weth
ers and lambs included In the receipts.
As yet the receipts of thin stuff has
not assumed very large proportions,
there being not much change in the
supply over last week.
with discouraging advices from Chi
cago and otuer eastern points, the market
was late In starting and trade was rather
slow and quiet during the first couple of
hours in the morning. Buyers made their
early rounds looking for anything that
would make desirable killers and placed
bids on this class of stuff, but scarcely
any sheep or lambs changed hands on
the first round.
Advices from other market points, es
pecially from Chicago, were very dis
couraging, indicating as they did that
buyers were bidding way lower prices
and that very little business was being
done. As a result 4f these unfavorable
advices buyenj at this point were very
slow and backward about doing any busi
ness, apparently inclined to await further
information before filling orders. Thus
it happened that the entire forenoon
wore away with very little business be
ing done. A bunch of native lambs sold
at $7.26 with a deck of good range ewes
at $4.00. and old wethers at $3.50. There
was really not enough doing to call It
a market.

WANT AROHBALD THRFTIRE
IF CASE IS POSTPONED
WASHINGTON, July 31.-A movement
is on foot among senators who are de
manding an Immediate trial for Judge
Archbald, to require, as a condition to
the postponement of the case that the
Jurist retire from the commerce court
bench until his case has been decided.
A vote on the question of postponement
is expected either Thursday or Satur
day, the two days fixed for meetings of
the Impeachment court this week.
The Informal decision of the senate not
to. recognise "pairs" between senators
in votes taken on the case has resulted
in the cancellation of a number of out-of-town
engagements by Senators. Sen
ators Clapp and Bristow, who were to
take part In the Kansas primary cam
paign, have abandoned their proposed
trip.

YEARLY GRAFTJS $2,400,039
Developments in Rosenthal Case
Most Sensational.
BECKER ONE OF FOUR LEADERS
Roae, Collector for Police Lieaten
ant, Gives Details Names
Are Known to Prosecutor
Whitman.
NEW YORK, July 31.-Sworn state
ments tending to show that the annual
graft collected by high police . officials
in New York city from gambling houses
and other Illegal resorts has amounted
within the last year to $2,400,000 are In
the hands of District Attorney Whitman
tonight 1
The statements were made to the dis
trict attorney today by "Bald Jack" Rose
self-accused collector for Police Lieuten
ant Charles Becker, head of the "strong
arm squad," who tonight began his sec
ond day of incarceration in the Tombs
prison as an alleged instigator of the
murder of Herman Rosenthal, the gam
bler. The annual yield of $2,400,000 protection
money was equally divided, according to
the story told by Rose, among four high
officials of the police department one of
them being Becker, and from evidence
the district attorney has collected he
has reason to suspect that each $600,000
was further distributed. In other words,
there were four separata systems or bu
reaus of graft collection, each beaded by
a high police official.
Whitman, it was learned, has the
names of the other three police officials
whom Rose has named and his further
efforts In this now most sensational "po
lice exposure" that New York has ever
seen will be directed toward strengthen
ing the evidence which points against
them. One of the officials named, it
was learned,, holds a position at head
quarters and is in a strict sense a
civilian employe.
Prominent Man Caught.
The name of a former prominent city
official has been brought to the atten
tion of the district attorney as having
been closely connected with the "graft
system," but It was learned that the evi
dence thus far obtained against him is
not of a tangible nature. The evidence,
however, is being closely followed by the
detectives In the employ of the district
attorney.
It also became known tonight that if
Lieutenant Becker will tell all he knows,
not only in respect to his own alleged
complicity In the murder, but will unfold
the Inner workings of the graft system,
insofar as it may involve the "men
higher up," no effort will be made to
enforce the extreme penalty for the
crime of which he now stands accused
the murder of Rosenthal but he will
be granted leniency on that condition
only.
The alleged fact of the $:,400,000 graft
lund was told to him by Becker, Rose
said, in a sworn statement today. Becker,
he said, told htm that he handled $600,000
a year and that equal amounts were
handled by three other officials. This,
he said, came in collections from gambl
ing houses, pools rooms, houses of ill
lepute and the like.
Rose said he had collected gambling
graft for Becker for months, and he
promised the district attorney that ha
would obtain for him the rates paid by
gambling houses, make a tabulation of
what these receipts amounted to
monthly, and yearly, and how the money
was handled. That there were other col
lectors besides Rose is the assumption of
the district attorney, who hopes to iden
tify them.
: Prince of Police Department
"Becker told me that he was . the
prince of the police department" Rose
said. "He paid me liberally out of my
collections, but I never was able to keep ,
what I got. I was a fool gambler, and
gambled it all away."
Part of the business between the
gamblers and the police, the district at
torney was told, was boldly done
through checks, although his efforts to
secure evidence in this form have proved
fruitless.
"Brldgie" Webber, the gambling houso
keeper, who also has confessed and
whose story largely resulted in the
arrest of Becker, promised Whitman. It
was learned, to corroborate Rose's state
ment in regard to the collections.
Webber today admitted to the district
attorney that $2,000 was the sum which
he received to pay the men who actually
fired the shot which killed Rosenthal.
Had Faith In Becker.
In regard to the murder itself. Rose
said to Mr. Whitman that the reason why
It was done so openly and that no effort
was made to cover the number of the
big gray murder car as It drove upto the
hotel Metropole to "get" Rosenthal waa
that Becker was "relied upon for pro.
tection."
In addition to the men "higher tip,"
District Attorney Whitman is Investigat
ing the records of two members of the
"strong arm squad" who helped Becker
in some ot his socalled fake gambling
raids. They will be asked to appear
"voluntarily" before the grand Jury and
if they refuse Commissioner Waldo will
be requested by District Attorney Whit
man to suspend them.
Although Whitman realizes that he Is
dealing with the testimony of gamblers
in. constructing his case, he believes that
the corroborative evidence Is strong. He
plans, It was learned, to go slowly In the
case and It appears likely that the grand
Jury investigation will continue all the
summer.
